I get exactly what I expect:
C#
double d = 0.123456789012345;
Debug.WriteLine(d.ToString("G15"));
d = 12345.123456789012345;
Debug.WriteLine(d.ToString("F15"));
0.123456789012345
12345.123456789000000

Remember what I said?
Quote:
But...Double values only have a precision of "15 ~ 17" digits (depending on the value, it's down to how they are stored as binary): double keyword (C# Reference) | Microsoft Docs[^] so specifying 15 digits after the decimal poitn is probably not going to work in many cases.

If the double variable can only hold a total of 15~17 significant decimal digits, then you can't get 20 output of it!
Remember how double values are stored: as binary with a mantissa and an exponent. So the code (rightly) prints the same number of significant digits and pads the rest to the size you asked for.

To be honest, if you think any number you can come up with is going to be accurate to fifteen digits, you are very probably wrong! Laugh | :laugh:
